LEIPZIG: OTTO HABEASSOWITZ Published February 1907 WL Composed and Printed By The University of Chicago Press Chicago. Itlinois. U. S. A. PREFACE TO VOLUME V These indices are the work of my friend and former pupil, Dr. 0. A. Toffteen. I would take occasion to express to him here my thanks and appreciation for the labor and care which he has expended upon them. While the author has constantly supervised the compilation, yet the work has beer1 that of Dr. Toffteen, and he is fully responsible for it. It should be said in justice to him, as well as perhaps to the auth~oralso, that the latter's return to the Orient for another season left the compiler only a little over two months in which to complete his heavy task. He was obliged to work more hours a day and with more speed than was his desire, but I am sure that the usefulness of his work, and the persistent industry with which he has compiled his lists, will deserve lenient judgment, should any occasional errors in numbers be found. I hope also that the necessity for the separate publication of such exhaustive indices in a volume by them- selves will be evident to any who may have expected to find them included in Volume IV. Aside from the fact that it woulld have rendered that volume (already far the largest of the set) much too bulky, it was thought highly desirable to give such a cyclopadia of the subject separate existence asa volume, rather than to absorb it in Volume IV, where it would be constantly lost to use, whenever anyone might be using Volume IV for some other purpose. 1,ikewise if bourtd up with Volume IV, the employment of the indices by a reader would also have involved the needless use of Volume IV with them. The compilation of the index has disclosed an occasional inconsistency in rendering, and in a few cases also in the orthography of proper names, in view of which the author would only recall the long period of v vi PREFACE TO VOLUME V time and the numerous modifications involved in the slow progress of such a work as this. In view of some remarks in one of the first reviews which have appeared, it should be stated that it was necessary to close the manuscript of these Records to any additions on October I, 1904. Any works or texts which appeared after that date could not be included. An advance proof kindly sent me by Eduard Meyer enabled me to employ his invaluable Chronologie in revising the chronology in Volume I; and wherever possible I endeavored to insert in the proof important facts appearing in new books and current journals. But I could take up no new texts. The omission of Abydos texts, mentioned by Foucart (Journal des Savants, June, 1906, p. 336), was intentional, as no translatable document of importance is in Abydos, Volume I, the only volume out when my manuscript was handed in. Among these the inscription of "Nakhiti," which Foucart says I have overlooked, is in our own Haskell Museum, where it was received not long after its discovery. I was therefore not very likely to overlook it. As I have stated in the general preface, circumstances beyond my control obliged me to read the proofs of these volumes, as well as those of my History of Egypt, between April and September, 1905, a period in which fell also the preparations for the expedition to Egypt under the auspices of the Oriental Exploration Fund, University of Chicago. There are therefore doubtless more typographical errors and corrigenda than I could wish. I have already noticed the following : Vol. I, §§ 178-80. Please read in the following order: 180, 178, 179. The unpublished and also almost unreadable base-inscription should be mentioned here (see Maspero, Les Origines, p. 364, note 8). PREFACE TO VOLUME V vii V'ol. I, $ 182. The verb after " Ptah" is doubtless part of the name, so that the ny is dative and not the n-form. We should then render, " Ptahyutnai (Pth-ywt-ny), who made this for him, etc." Vol. I, $ 185. For "field judge who," read "field judge, Kem- ethnenet (Kmtnnt), who." Vol. I, $ 199. After '' Upper," insert '' Oleander." Vol. I, $ 538. For "count of Siut," read "official of Siut." Vol. I, $ 685. For "Nebkure," read "Nubkure." Vol. I, before $ 707, at top of p. 313. Insert as a title, "REIGN OF AMENEMHET 111." Vol. I, pp, 314, 316, 318, 320, 322, 324, 326, in running-title At the top of the page for "SESOSTRIS 111," read "AMENEMHET 111." Vbl. 11, $ 657. For "by the hair the Kode-folk," read "among the Curly-Haired," as in Vol. 11, $ 71. Vol. 11, p. 305, note a. For "has," read "have." Vol. 11, § 854. For " Ibbet," read " Ibhet." Vol. 111, $ 309. For "K '-r '-ky-kSJ" read "K '-I Zky-SJ." Vol. 111, $ 498. For " H'," read " H3m." This change is due to a collation of the original at Abu Simbel. V01. IV, $240. For "s'mw," read "sCmw." Vo1. IV, $ 455. For " '-ry-m," read "'-r-ry-m." Vol. IV, $ 493. For "Nfr-k -R ," read " Nfr-k' -R ". Vol. IV, $815. For '' Zeamamefonekh," read " Zeamonefonekh." Vol. IV, $853. For "htnz," read " btm." Vol. IV, $ 874. For "Hnt-Hty," read "grit-Hty." Vol. IV, $ 918. For "NxC'- bys-lzht. t," read "N ' -C'-t ' ys-n&.t." Vol. IV, $921. For ''B '-k'-R'," read "B3-k'-RC." Vo1. IV, $1028. For "whm," read "whm." I would also note that the inscription recording a cam- paign in Syria, supposed to belong to Thutmose I1 (Vol. 11, § 125), has been shown by Sethe's examination of the original probably to belong to Thutmose I. Hence Naville was right ... vlu PREFACE TO VOLUME V in attributing the monument to the last-mentioned king (Deir-el-Bahri, Vol. 111, p. 17). This makes the reign of Thutmose I1 still more ephemeral and unimportant. HASKELLORIENTAL MUSEUM, UNIVERSITYOF CHICAGO, September I, 1906. LIST OF INDICES AND HINTS FOR USE PAGE INDEX I.

LEPSIUS'DENKMALER AND TEXT.... 201 The templcs (Index IT) will be found supplementary to the geography in Index VI. Inscriptions, however, are not placed under temples. The inscriptions of all sites will be fouiid in the geographical index (VI). In compiling the list of temples tt was found difficult to distinguish between the different temples in a given city, when such temples have perished, as, for example, at Memphis and Heliopolis. The differentiations made are probably not always correct. The index of Pharaohs includes also such queens as actually ruled; otherwise the queens will be found in Index IV. The documents, monuments, wars, etc., of th~Pharaohs will be found under the numbered name, not under the throne- name. Thus, look for Thutmose I11 under Thutmose 111, not under Menkheperre; the references to the latter name will be found appended to those of the former. The historical development of terms should not be forgotten in using these lists. '' Count," "mayor," and "prince" are all renderings of the same Egyptian term at different periods. In the same way, different connection often demands a different rendering of the same title; thus, "chief, " "overseer, " " master, " and " governor" may be rendered from the same Egyptian title. Such a series is also " lord, " " nomarch, " and " ruler.

Prof. SETHEin Vol. 50, page 57, of this journal, printed an article entitled, “Das Fehlen des Begriffes der Blutschande bei den alten Ägyptern”, in which he concluded that Prince Neferma’at (of Giza) was the son of Sneferuw andhis eldest daughter, Nefertkauw. The conclusion was based on an emendation of the text above the false door in the tomb of Sneferuwkhaf at Giza to read: “The king of Upper and Lower Egypt, Sneferuw; his eldest daughter, Nefertkauw ; their son, Neferma’at; his son, Sneferuwkhaf”“. The con- clusion is maintained in a further article, “Zum Inzest des Sneferu” in Vol. 54, p. 54. During the month of February 1926, the Harvard-Boston Expedition excavated the area which contains the tomb of Sneferuwkhaf. From the secret tomb of Hetep- heres southwards runs the great street which we call “Queens Street’’ which separates the mastabas of the sons and daughters of Cheops from the pyramids of his queens. The CEM.G7000 WEST SIDE three small pyramids and the northernmost row of mastabas were built by Cheops and bear the name of one of the working crews found in the king’s pyramid. The casings of the royal mastabas in the second row and southwards were constructed in the time of Chephren.

  • Ancient Egyptian Chronology and the Book of Genesis
    Answers Research Journal 4 (2011):127–159. www.answersingenesis.org/arj/v4/ancient-egyptian-chronology-genesis.pdf Ancient Egyptian Chronology and the Book of Genesis Matt McClellan, [email protected] Abstract One of the most popular topics among young earth creationists and apologists is the relationship of the Bible with Ancient Egyptian chronology. Whether it concerns who the pharaoh of the Exodus was, the background of Joseph, or the identity of Shishak, many Christians (and non-Christians) have wondered how these two topics fit together. This paper deals with the question, “How does ancient Egyptian chronology correlate with the book of Genesis?” In answering this question it begins with an analysis of every Egyptian dynasty starting with the 12th Dynasty (this is where David Down places Moses) and goes back all the way to the so called “Dynasty 0.” After all the data is presented, this paper will look at the different possibilities that can be constructed concerning how long each of these dynasties lasted and how they relate to the biblical dates of the Great Flood, the Tower of Babel, and the Patriarchs. Keywords: Egypt, pharaoh, Patriarchs, chronology, Abraham, Joseph Introduction Kingdom) need to be revised. This is important During the past century some scholars have when considering the relationship between Egyptian proposed new ways of dating the events of ancient history and the Tower of Babel. The traditional dating history before c. 700 BC.1 In 1991 a book entitled of Ancient Egyptian chronology places its earliest Centuries of Darkness by Peter James and four of dynasties before the biblical dates of the Flood and his colleagues shook the very foundations of ancient confusion of the languages at Babel.

Please feel free to send me your comments and I hope you enjoy this. David Reed History Of The Decline And Fall Of The Roman Empire Edward Gibbon, Esq. With notes by the Rev. H. H.
